1956 CESSNA 172, NICE AIRFRAME, NOT CRASHED, LITTLE DAMAGE, CHEAP !! THIS IS A NICE CLEAN OLDER 172 ! THIS AIRPLANE DID NOT CRASH !! A MICROBURST HIT THE AIRPORT, AND THIS AIRPLANE WAS PUSHED AGAINST ANOTHER AIRPLANE ON THE FLIGHT LINE AS A RESULT, THE DAMAGE TO THIS AIRPLANE IS VERY LIGHT, AND ISOLATED TO ONLY A FEW ISSUES !! THE LEFT WING SUFFERED DAMAGE TO THE OUTBOARD EXTENSION AREA. THIS SEPERATE TIP AREA IS ACTUALLY DESIGNED TO BE "BREAK AWAY" AS IT HAS SEPERATE SKINS, AND THE FRONT AND MAIN SPARS DO NOT EXTEND OUT TO THE TIPS. AS A RESULT, THIS AREA IS FAIRLY EASY AND COST EFFECTIVE TO REPAIR. THE METAL WING TIP IS ALSO SCRATCHED, AND WILL REQUIRE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT THE BALANCE OF THE WING IS NOT DAMAGED ! THE MAIN SPARS ARE NOT BUCKLED, THE FUEL TANK AREA IS STRAIGHT, AND BOTH THE FLAP AND AILERON ARE STRAIGHT THE LIFT STRUT IS NOT DAMAGED EITHER, SO THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE ATTACH POINTS. THE ONLY OTHER DAMAGE IS A DENT TO THE UPPER METAL NOSE COWLING, AND A CUT IN THE LOWER NOSE BOWL. THERE IS NO OTHER AIRFRAME DAMAGE TO THIS AIRPLANE AS A RESULT !! ALL 3 LANDING GEAR ARE GOOD AND COMPLETE, WITH A CLEVELAND WHEEL AND BRAKE CONVERSION. THE NOSE FORK AND CHROME ARE GOOD, BUT THE NOSEWHEEL IS CRACKED ON ONE SIDE (LEFT AND RIGHT ARE SEPARATE PIECES) ALL OF THE CONTROL SURFACES ON THE WINGS AND THE TAIL ARE GOOD THE FUSELAGE IS 100%STRAIGHT, WITH NO CARRY-THROUGH, DOOR OR TAILCONE ISSUES THE ONE PIECE WINDSHIELD IS CRAZED, BUT NOT BROKEN. YELLOW AND BROWN VINTAGE-LOOK STRIPING, THE PAINT IS IN OVERALL GOOD CONDITION. THE TAN AND BROWN CLOTH INTERIOR LOOKS VERY GOOD, AND THE FRONTS HAVE SHOULDER BELTS ADDED FOR SAFETY THE FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS HAVE BEEN UPDATED, AND THE DASH IS CLEAN YOKES ARE CLEAN AND SMOOTH A NEW STYLE DASH FACE ORGANIZES THE INSTRUMENTS INTO A VERY MODERN LAYOUT THE AVIONICS UNITS WERE A MISH-MASH OF EQUIPMENT, AND ARE NOT INCLUDED. YOU WILL BE FREE TO INSTALL WHAT ONLY WHAT YOU NEED OR DESIRE. THE PROPELLOR WAS DAMAGED IN THE INCIDENT, SO THE ENGINE AND ACCESSORIES FORWARD OF THE MOUNT WERE REMOVED AND ARE NOT INCLUDED. THIS TOO GIVES YOU OPTIONS. CONTINENTAL 0-300A, B, C AND D 145 H.P. ENGINES ARE A DIRECT BOLT-ON TO THE UNDAMAGED, INCLUDED ENGINE MOUNT, AND THE CABLES, LINES AND ELECTRICAL FOR THESE ENGINES IS STILL INSTALLED AND INCLUDED OR UPDATE TO THE SUPER POPULAR LYCOMING 180 H.P. 0-360 CONVERSION.

REPAIR OF ANY AIRCRAFT WILL DEPEND ON MANY FACTORS, SUCH AS AVAILABILITY OF USED PARTS, LABOR RATE OF THE REPAIR FACILITY, FAMILIARITY WITH THE AIRCRAFT, ETC. AND WE WOULD NEVER PRESUME TO ESTIMATE THIS NUMBER FOR A BUYER. BEWARE OF THOSE WHO OBVIOUSLY GIVE UNREALISTICALLY LOW "ESTIMATES" FOR THE REPAIR OF THE DAMAGED AIRCRAFT THEY SELL.
